1 . Bring the antenna cable from the antenna into the trunk at the front edge
of the trunk lid . Keep any bends in the cable loose . Tape or tie the cable
along the inside of the trunk lid to the trunk lid hinge strut .
2 . Allow enough slack in the cable so the trunk lid can easily open and close
and keep the cable away from hinges, gears, etc ., that could crimp or
cut it . Route the cable along the trunk wall and into the cabin through a
conduit or along an existing wiring harness .
3 . Route the cable through the main cabin area under the interior trim,
towards the front of the vehicle . Use a blunt plastic putty knife or similar
blunt tool to lift the plastic trim just enough to tuck the cable under
underneath . Avoid side airbag locations on back pillars and above the
doors . Airbag locations are marked with “SRS” logos . Be careful not to
crimp or cut the cable .
4 . Bring the cable out from the trim near the front of the cabin and route
it under the carpet toward the dashboard or console . Coil any excess
cable in a hidden location, such as under the carpet, keeping it away from
any vehicle pedals or controls . Secure the excess cable with wire ties
(purchased separately) .
5 . Bring the end of the cable out at
the Power Vehicle Dock
location . Leave yourself enough cable
so you can easily connect it to the
antenna connector of the dock .
6 . Continue with “Step 5: Connect
the Magnetic Mount Antenna and
Power Power Adapter” on
